Bought SIDI Adventure 2 Gore-Tex Boots

[PowerDubs_imp]

Safest looking I could find from what I saw- pretty much a motocross boot adapted for the street.

I didn't buy from Sidi's website, I bought from TheVisorShop.com - total cost with shipping- £263.74 ($360.72)

So for reference Revzilla's price is $450 +tax

You can save a LOT buying overseas. Some times you need to wait a couple weeks for arrival, although that may be more now due to covid.

I've bought motorcycle gear from Japan, Germany, Australia, U.K./Ireland all with no issues, all MUCH cheaper than I could get the product here in the U.S.

You also get options / access to items that aren't available in the U.S.- such as the Shoei Glamster helmet I just bought, the Helston jacket, ...or even on my old Shoei Qwest- a light transitioning visor.

Thanks for the tip on this site. Just checked a sample item that I'm going to be needing soon. Can save about $33 on a Neotec 2 including shipping costs. Not retirement-changing money--but it's $33 to go toward more bike stuff.

What color?

On that site a white Neotec is £467.99 before shipping

On Champion the same helemt is 445.45

Gotta look around.. for example the lowest price I could find on my Glamster was motorstorm but the neotec is higher there. - https://www.motostorm.it/en/helmets/modu...white.html

They do have a 'leave a review, get a coupon code'..that knocks the price down 20 pounds.

I bought those exact boots a few years ago, online from Italy. They were 60% of the cost of the same boot here in the US and they were delivered to my door within a week. It’s how I buy my Schuberth helmets too. Same product but you can save a bunch.

That said, I found the boots to be too stiff for street riding and sold them on Craigslist for $90. I’ve been wearing Sidi Armada Gore-Tex boots ever since and couldn’t be more pleased.

Wow. You took a big loss.


I am hoping they will be OK as the reviews are good.

I am used to wearing motocross boots, which I am hoping are similar if not worse...

Also, I'm ok with mild discomfort as the pain of unprotected is still vivid in my mind.

Would be great to have a thread listing online motorcycle supply sites--US and ex-US. I enjoy the Google scavenger hunts, but not everybody has the time or ability.

Agreed. Even with a site list, there is still time to compare current deals and coupon codes...but yea.. much better than going in blind.
